16. When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases;but the righteous will see their fall.
17. Correct your son, and he will give you rest;yes, he will give delight to your soul.
18. Where there is no vision, the people perish;but happy is he who keeps the teaching.
19. A servant will not be corrected by words,for though he understands he will not answer.
20. Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21. He who delicately brings up his servant from a childwill have him as a son in the end.
